Just picked this one, plan on sending to NGC, Grade opinions? Cleaned?  *** Moved by Staff to a more appropriate forum. ***

I'll go XF45 but do believe it would get a details grade. It's been messed with and retoned a bit. Was it an ebay find ?

I'd go with "Cleaned - XF Details".

Yes! It is a rarely seen, famous variety. Unfortunately, it has been cleaned and re-colored. A more expert copper restorer might have done a better job. An expert still might be able to improve its appearance, or you could put it in a coin envelope and let mother nature take its course. That will take years.

VF-30 details (cleaned), but a great find.

VF-35 details with verdigras between A and M. I'm a bit harsh on grading Indian cents and it needs more diamond details for me to give it EF grade.

Liberty and feathers are too nice. I gave it a pass on the diamonds.

Hey, maybe the coins got some problems but you cherry-picked the top variety in the IHC series. Very hard to find unattributed.

XF Details. The doubling is very prominent, nice coin. I would get it graded.

Might be worth a pass at NGC/NCS to see if they can do anything with it. Either way, it's a highly collectible and very desirable key variety in the IHC series. The attribution, even on a details slab, is always nice.
